$$\frac{1}{2}+\frac{3}{7}$$

$\frac{13}{14}\approx 0.928571429$

Least common multiple of $2$ and $7$ is $14$. Convert $\frac{1}{2}$ and $\frac{3}{7}$ to fractions with denominator $14$.

$$\frac{7}{14}+\frac{6}{14}$$

Since $\frac{7}{14}$ and $\frac{6}{14}$ have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{7+6}{14}$$

Add $7$ and $6$ to get $13$.

$$\frac{13}{14}$$

$\frac{13}{2 \cdot 7} = 0.9285714285714286$
